amy's closet

hi guys!  i took a bit of a break but...the bitch is back!!!  that said, there are so many things i've been meaning to share with you.  first off, however, is the amy winehouse collection from amy and fred perry.  i've always thought ms. winehouse was a star when it came to choosing a signature look that best fit her brand.  how original, how retro (a paradox, i know)!  although the pieces i saw didn't meet my high expectations for a winehouse line, there were still great items to work with.  above are a few of the articles i liked most.  what do you guys think of it??  can't wait for more music from this soulful one.

happy school year...scarlet fever edition

this september, i wanted to make sure back to school attire was addressed at passionista place. but, the more i thought about putting together an essential must have list, the more i freaked out. its because everyone's personal style is so different, i wouldn't know where to begin. if you're in high school or younger, i think what is most appropriate is dressing for your age. that means nothing too short or too tight and provocative. you have you're whole life to knock yourself out in that arena. this the time to experiment with various looks and to change your mind whenever you feel like it. that said, i've decided to forgo all of the back to school basics and give you a few suggestions in a three part series. so here we go...

red! red is one of the major colors of the season so why not start young? plus, there is hardly a human being alive that doesn't look good in some shade of the vibrant (or not so vibrant, your call) hue. confused about how exactly to incorporate this fearless color into your new school year warbrobe? well, passionista place to the rescue! just take a look above for the visuals. read the list below for more suggestions.

why not try a red...

• lip



• nail


• hoodie



• ballet flat



• chucks



• cardigan
  


• scarf



• hot dress



• skinny (cigarette) jean



• winter coat
